Abstract

A total of 4,851 bibliographic reference citations from 12 business and economics journals were examined for accuracy to determine if error rates were similar to those of other fields. The journals selected were Academy of Management Journal, Academy of Management Review, Administrative Science Quarterly, Econometrica, Journal of Consumer Research, Journal of Economic Perspectives, Journal of Finance, Journal of Financial Economics, Journal of Marketing, Journal ofRisk and Uncertainty, Quarterly Journal of Economics, mdStrategic Management Journal. Citations printed in the last issue of each journal in 1998 were compared with the original publications to determine their accuracy. An average of 41.7% of citations in the journals contained 1 or more errors. Most appeared in authors' names, followed by errors in pagination, followed by errors in article or chapter titles. of the 93 articles examined, only two had completely error-freee reference lists.
